PAAZ is a synonym of Paulo Azevedo, an architect graduated from FAUP (Faculty of Architecture of the University of Porto), who has collaborated in different architectural offices and participated in several projects of single-family houses, restoration, interior development, among others, being present from the conception to the monitoring of the work. He has lived in Rome and Vienna, where the “philosophy of space” is very present. He returned to Porto, where he opened PAAZ, to put his stamp on architectural and design projects. This office aims to advertise architectural services and, at the same time, sell its own brand products (with the possibility of being personalised) or another brand, preferably Portuguese.

Created in 1973, Móveis Carlos Cruz Lda. opens its first shop and, since then, works daily to materialise the dreams of its customers, betting on the quality of its products. It grew and opened new spaces in the city, becoming a family business, never losing sight of its mission: to surprise the customer with innovation, dedication and quality assurance of products manufactured in Portugal, while having a personalised delivery service, with free assembly of the furniture. It seeks to create decoration solutions that adapt to the routine of each client, improving in detail, in the colour of each piece of furniture that, as a whole, will make each client’s house their home.

It’s in the famous Rua Miguel Bombarda that is located Aqui e Agora, a shop that specializes in vintage furniture (with a penchant for Nordic furniture) as well as painting.
Its space, marked by sobriety, good taste and quality is populated by various antique furniture, including several chairs, tables, sideboards and sofas.

In this welcoming space you will find several options to renovate your home, always under the sign of quality furniture and timeless design.
